Select Board adds handicap parking to spring street work, approves AA Field reservation and advances ordinance amendments
Summary
The Blue Hill Select Board agreed to add a new handicap parking spot to the spring 2027 street-painting list, approved an AA Field reservation for July 17 (4–0 with one abstention) and discussed technical amendments to shoreland, subdivision and a new building ordinance.
Select Board member S. Miller asked the board to add an isolated handicap parking spot on Main Street and to review other handicap spaces for possible conversion; the Board agreed to include the work in the spring 2027 street-painting schedule. A. Woog observed the topic may arise during Safe Streets for All planning.
Rosy Whitney requested to reserve the AA Field for a birthday party on July 17, 2026; the Board found no conflict with Little League and approved the Town property use request by a 4–0 vote with one abstention (the meeting record did not name the abstaining member).
S. Miller summarized proposed technical amendments to the Shoreland Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances intended for a Special Town Meeting warrant and described a draft Building Ordinance to clarify Certificates of Occupancy and allow charging some construction fees; given the ordinance’s scope the Board agreed it should appear on the Annual Town Meeting warrant. A Notice of Violation to Blaze sent July 8, 2026 by Z. Alvarez was noted in the packet.
Board members did not take final action on the zoning and building ordinance drafts at the meeting; they agreed on the appropriate meeting vehicle (Special or Annual Town Meeting) for each item.
